Thanks for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy this in-depth comparison of the Staccato P and Stealth Arms Platypus 1911! 🎥🔫

[@ninjagold9244]

Great comparison, I liked the shooting segments. Always nice to see how the guns fare in practice, even anecdotally.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Agreed it's good to see it play out, though I will say I have shot them both extensively and have come up with the same results time after time! I hope you subscribed, love the feedback (keep it coming) and some good stuff coming up!

[@InkwellFoto]

This is a great video for law enforcement wanting to get into a 1911, but Glock being king on the job.

[@RazorMP_Official]

I love all my Glock pistols and really love my Staccatos....but for the price and accuracy from the Stealth Arms Platypus....well it was too nice to pass up if you are into the 1911 Double Stacks. Hope you subscribed, love the feedback!

[@davidboese6276]

I absolutely love my platypus. The customization, the price, the reliability, and it takes glock mags. I've heard their customer service is unbeatable. It's hard to buy any other hand gun when you own one of these. Staccatos are nice but you get way more options for less money with stealth arms.

[@RazorMP_Official]

You brought up very good points. The price, customization, Glock mag compatibility and customer service. All of which make this gun very attractive. I’ll wait on weighing in on reliability until I’ve put more rounds through it. Hope you subscribed to find out how it goes!

[@gentlemenexecutioner]

Scottsdale Represent!! Just noticed the SGC on the target. Thank you for the informative video, about to order a Platypus for myself

[@Balticblue93]

I got rid of my Staccato P after spending some time with my Platypus. If I had a Staccato XC, I would just kept the XC and bought the Platypus to enjoy. The XC is a whole different beast.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Absolutely agree. The accuracy is just better with the platypus over the Staccato P. My XC though can run faster and a little more accurate at least when I shoot them both. Make sure to subscribe, I have a vid dropping soon running a new bull barrel commander platypus against the Bul Armory Tac I think you might find interesting!

[@paulh6101]

Preciate the video. Your accuracy results were similar to mine. I rented the P about a year ago and the commander platypus about a month ago. The platypus is more accurate imo because of the smaller grip diameter allowing you to get a more solid grip and the noticeably nicer/cleaner trigger. I feel like the platypus lead times are gona skyrocket when the shot show updates go live...

[@RazorMP_Official]

No problem! I think you are right. in addition, I haven't seen customizations like the Platypus' direct from the manufacturer from any other maker. They are accurate and at their price point...very attainable. Like I said though...I won't go all in untill Ive had some time to test it out with a couple of thousand rounds. But I am hopeful. I think demand will go up nonetheless and people (rightly so) will jump at the current price point before it climbs up. Thanks for the input!

[@paulh6101]

wow, it appears that the cheaper one is more accurate out of the box .. but still, i believe it's the indian, not the arrow .. nice review 🎉

[@RazorMP_Official]

Totally agree. This is simply how well I shot both pistols, results may vary depending on the shooter. Hope you subscribed and thanks for the feedback!

[@James_the_not_so_Magnificent]

Im a 1911/2011 guy. Have been since, well, forever. I own a legacy STI, 2 Ps and an XC in the 2011 flavor. All duty guns at some point in a 26 year career. Love em. I shot a Platypus last week that belongs to a friend and former co-workers and I was impressed. Impressed enough to build one and place an order. Felt great, shot great and worked flawlessly with stock glop mags.😅 Agency issues the flop and mags are cheap and plentiful so it was kinda a no brainer. A great gun that uses a cheap mag. I dont believe ayone looking for a budget double stack 1911 will be disappointed with this gun.

[@RazorMP_Official]

I couldn’t agree with you more. I love LOVE in unhealthy way my staccatos….but damn…took the platypus out again yesterday and shot a group tighter than anything I’ve shot recently at 35ft. Hard to argue. Hope you are a subscriber. Have some more stuff coming out you might like!

[@James_the_not_so_Magnificent]

@RazorMP_Official Saw the new video. Good stuff. The new builder is up at Stealth Arms. Added the bull barrel and extreme grippy grip texture. Prickle.😅 Can't wait to get mine. Govt length, full dust cover , fde, with black backfill, straight trigger, comp weight, for SRO. Already got the sight. Waiting, as always.😔😅

[@RazorMP_Official]

That sounds like it will be a nice piece for sure. Make sure up post the pics when you finally get it! I actually have more 1911 videos coming out...just trying to get through my queue of footage for other guns and get it out the door! lol @@James_the_not_so_Magnificent

[@josephwetzel3734]

Im a staccato die hard, own a P myself. However glock mags with similar-ish craftsmanship, its a nice touch for the Platypus. Id like to see the true accuracy tho. When i purchased my staccato, they sent along with it a factory zero 3 shots, sub .5 moa. Might be worth a further test

[@RazorMP_Official]

I love all my staccato's but the platy shoots straight consistently as well. I found it very hard to admit the staccato might be getting a run for its money at a lower price point.

[@prdubi]

Thanks for doing this video. I withdrew my deposit for a Staccato and being I have a rather large Glock magazine collection, I am going with the Platypus. I'm torn on the new Turkish 2011s but I'm oversold on the Platypus based on the magazines alone. Great video. I subscribed.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Glad it was helpful! And thanks for subscribing! Let me know if there is any other content you would like to see.

[@MarvinTurner-oc4ml]

You will not regret buying a Platypus, I promise you. Staccato makes fine guns, and I would like to have one. But when I can get two Platypus ( or is that Platypii? ) for the price of one Staccato with all the trimmings I have a hard time choosing the Staccato.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Yeah.... It's a work in progress...for now I do it all, shooting (my favorite part), research, scripting, videography (bane of my existence) and editing (longest part of it). But if you look where I started to today's videos I think (hope) it's gotten better....all discovery learning! lol Thanks for subscribing.

[@goatslifepartdeux5492]

I have a C2 limited with comp. I have a platy. The C2 is softer for me. I don’t have too many rounds through the SA. But I’ve shot the C2a bunch and it’s smooth. There’s no way it’s fair to compare the platy to the XC. It’s awesome! But I’m going to be spending more time with it soon.

[@RazorMP_Official]

I agree. The platypus is an awesome pistol but may not fair well against a compensated pistol like the XC…but SA does have a threaded barrel available. Would like to see a comp made for it and see how it compares! I have the C2 as well…one of my favorites. Hope you subscribed, I have a few coming up that may interest you!

[@peterquinn2997]

I’m interested in both of these guns but the frustrating thing for me is the fact that I’m struggling to find videos of either of these guns(or damn near any gun these days) showing the shooting experience without a flashlight, which affects weigh, recoil etc. I won’t be carrying either one of these guns and i don’t need a light on my gun in my already well lit indoor range so I have zero need for a flashlight on a range gun.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Subscribe and I’ll see if I can do a short video without lights on either pistol for you. Happy to get you that insight

[@RazorMP_Official]

[@abwolfsto6039]

On the target shooting wish you would have rotated the target 🎯 so it can be placed the same way when you shot the first gun. That way your stance and point of view would be close to the same when comparing both guns shot targets.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Very good point brother! I’ll make sure the next is done just like that, make sure to subscribe! I’ll be pitting the Platypus against Bul Armory! You won’t want to miss that!

[@brandonh4527]

I'll take the Staccato P for now. It is time tested and reliable, and it comes in a steel frame. If I could get a Platypus in steel frame and once it has a longer track record, I would likely get one.

[@RazorMP_Official]

I totally get that....in fact I say as much in the last video. Stealth Arms is doing well...maybe too well. Meaning rapid growth sometimes means growing pains. Quality may go down or without long term testing in the field, there may be previously unidentified issues lying in wait. Though I will say....I have heard zero bad feedback on their guns thus far.

[@ULTRAMAGAlodon]

I need a platypus in my life.

[@jmartinez1118]

Love my Platypus

[@RazorMP_Official]

I think most platy owners would agree! Make sure to subscribe...more to come!

[@Leavemymoneyalone]

Curious how a Canik Rival would stack up against each.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Generally speaking, striker fired pistols are double action only trigger systems which do not usually fare well against a single action like a 1911. Meaning the striker needs to move to the rear, then forward to fire (more opportunity to move off target under the weight of pulling the trigger). Where the single action 1911 just needs to release the cocked hammer...I will say some striker-fired pistols with tuned triggers can garner competitive results. I've never shot the Rival specifically but happy to give it a go and do a comparison.

[@jessegutierrez7276]

LOL.. You shot better with the SA but you're not sure? I smell Bias TX boy..LOL.. Great video thanks! Im glad the SA Platy is getting more exposure. I subscribed.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Oh I am biased! lol But the platy shoots well! I just haven't had it as long so not sure about durability! No arguing its a straight shooter though! Love it. Thanks for subscribing! Let me know what other guns you want to see reviewed brother!

[@jessegutierrez7276]

@@RazorMP_Official Keep getting rounds with it.. You'll love it more and more, especially when you do a course with it and dumping the mags on any surface and it doesn't make you cringe due to the price if it breaks. I was skeptical but have around 4k rounds on my commander model (and duty EDC it)and waiting for my slide to come back from being ported on my full size. I may not ever get on the staccato train after SA announced they are making improvements and a version that takes P320 mags because I got a bunch of those too! As far as another gun.. Get ahold of a Alpha Foxtrot S15 vs. a Staccato CS and see what you think.

[@RazorMP_Official]

It's going on the list! Ill see how it how they compare and do you up a video!@@jessegutierrez7276

[@ejwoolz]

Not only did he shoot faster, but the Platypus is clearly more accurate! Saying "comparable accuracy" is disregarding the OBVIOUSLY smaller Platypus groups.

[@RazorMP_Official]

@@ejwoolz Its hard to say it out loud being from Texas...and lets be honest....Staccato is the benchmark that other 1911 DS/2011 are measured by. But that said...the Platy did shoot better and a little more accurate.

[@deusvult6632]

I don't think you could go wrong with either gun because they're both made to be high quality. I would suggest you pay for some good quality training because your shot times and draw stroke needs a lot of work. Putting homes on paper in an AC controlled environment is very different than combat shooting under stress.

[@RazorMP_Official]

Both guns shoot amazingly well. And I totally agree there is a huge difference between shooting under stress and in a controlled environment. I'll get better with time and practice that's for sure but the review is more how the gun shoots than how I shoot them. Thanks for the feedback, always welcomed...Make sure to subscribe!

[@deusvult6632]

@@RazorMP_Official I live in Scottsdale too. These days I care less about the equipment than the training which allows me to shoot at a higher level regardless of equipment. We run a group in Phoenix where we train with long guns, pistols, and shotguns moving and shooting that induces stress innoculation so that we're prepared for real world scenarios.

Well I may have to do a segment on your training and the group. DM me on instagram if you are interested in collaborating.

I like the platypus, but my staccato’s are way more accurate than either of these, not bragging. I think you can do better with either. Nice video though

[@RazorMP_Official]

No doubt! I Love my Staccato's, and I can and do out shoot the Platypus with an XC, hands down. Im just a better shooter with the XC (but it's so damn accurate, who isn't), But the video only showed a couple iterations. In all instances my groups were better with the SA, not by much but still better. Maybe it's the longer barrel or maybe I just shoot the Staccato P poorly...either is possible! lol Hope you subscribed and I do appreciate all the feedback! Keep it coming!

[@Colonel1Bravo]

@@RazorMP_Official I was the same way with a P that I rented from the range. I rented a P and a CZ shadow 2 that I didn’t shoot that well. Neither had an optic and my eyes struggled with the sights on both. Then I bought all of the staccato’s except the XL (have the other 4). I run a holosun comp on my XC and a trijicon rmr on my P. My P has a threaded barrel so technically it’s a tad longer. My XC, like yours is the most accurate. However, once I learned the P a little better it shoots nearly as good as the XC but the XC trigger beats it by a little as it translates to accuracy, not much now that I have the P figured out. I have started using S&B 115 grain mostly and my accuracy has improved immensely on all guns I shoot now and that stuff is consistent. Try some if you haven’t. Keep posting about your 2011’s. I can watch videos on the same guns over and over as you do new videos. Never gets old. I plan on getting a platypus this year hopefully and like you, I plan on keeping it all black

[@RazorMP_Official]

I will try the ammo out and see how I do! I had issues with ammo for my Atlas guns, so I stopped using just "any ammo' and shoot their recommended Blazer 124gr, And that's another good point, I have had ZERO issues with the type of ammo ive fed the staccatos. I have shot thousands of rounds through my XC and P and cannot remember a single malfunction. I have a couple videos coming up for you, that you might like for your 2011 fix!@@Colonel1Bravo

[@Colonel1Bravo]

@@RazorMP_Official sounds great, subscribed. None of my staccato’s have EVER had any type of malfunction with any ammo. Love them, but I do prefer the groups I get out of s&b. I’m sure the platypus is just as good as well. I shot the Springfield prodigy and every magazine had issues. That gun came to market with too many needs to be corrected by gun smiths. Can’t wait for the videos

[@standjos25]

Bushing barrel is usually more accurate. Bull barrel reduces muzzle flip and felt recoil because there’s less mass moving with the slide.
